QUOTE(karynkhoo @ May 19 2010, 11:03 AM) bracket come off won't charge as long as u still keep it. if u lose the bracket, then need to charge. i'm using oral-b. recommended by dr. how, because it's non alcoholic. i forgot how much i bought per bottle, stock up a lot at home during promotion. Added on May 19, 2010, 1:19 pmi just came back from dr. how's. i walked in n waited for less than an hour. surprisingly, faster than with appointment, hahaha... settled my lose bracket and changed the wire for lower jaw. anticipating for my wisdom tooth extraction next tuesday! really, i was there too. around 2pm got dr how had to leave by 4pm. got it fix for less than 5mins. the assistant fix it for me...haha.

for me, it's quite convenient, my office is in kl sentral, 10 mins drive to bangsar.
Lucky for u. Last time when i started my treatment, i worked in hartamas. And i can walk into office at 10.30am. So most of the time, i will go in the morning at 9 or 9.30am. Back then so convenient for me also. Now...susah lo...Office very far and long office hour. Start early and finish late...

Cause my next appointment will be on june. if it doesn't cause ur upper/lower teeth to crush your brackets, it should be alright to wait until ur next appointment.

QUOTE(karynkhoo @ May 24 2010, 10:19 AM) y disappointed? u wish to do extraction? haha. not really. but it has to be extracted anyway cause it has decayed. the ortho already told me which four teeth need to be extracted, but im still waiting for final instruction. plus, i have underbite problem, so most probably the two of my lower teeth need to be first extracted before the top ones.
